A secret field that summons lightning. A massive spiral that disappears into a salt lake. A celestial observatory carved into a volcano. Meet the wild—and sometimes explosive—world of land art, where artists craft masterpieces with dynamite and bulldozers. In our Season 2 premiere, guest Dylan Thuras, cofounder of Atlas Obscura, takes us off road and into the minds of the artists who literally reshaped parts of the Southwest. These works aren’t meant to be easy to reach—or to explain—but they just might change how you see the world. Land art you’ll visit in this episode: - Double Negative and City by Michael Heizer (Garden Valley, Nevada) - Spiral Jetty by Robert Smithson (Great Salt Lake, Utah) - Sun Tunnels by Nancy Holt (Great Basin Desert, Utah) - Lightning Field by Walter De Maria (Catron County, New Mexico) - Roden Crater by James Turrell (Painted Desert, Arizona) Via Podcast is a production of AAA Mountain West Group.…

For more resources and related links visit: https://www.healthnewsreview.org/podcastmedia/podcast-the-polluted-stream-of-health-care-information/ ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* As health care information flows from its source to the general public there are several opportunities for contamination. That contamination is something we document every day at HealthNewsReview.org: imbalanced, inaccurate media messages that mislead consumers about health care. But who is polluting our health care information? And how? In this podcast we speak with four people intimately involved in understanding and explaining not only how this happens, but what we can do about it. These experts will address topics such as the influence of promotional news releases, the impact of financial conflicts of interest, and the role of patient advocacy groups who don't always advocate in patients' best interests.…

Despite this, the Alzheimer's Association features fundraising commercials that promise "breakthroughs ... a cure ... (and) the first person to survive Alzheimer's disease is out there." In this podcast we explore whether such promises are irresponsible, unethical, and potentially harmful. You'll hear from: A gerontologist, a bioethicist ,a geriatric neurologist, and three people whose lives have been deeply impacted by the disease. [Photo Attribution: David Claxton via Flickr]…

They not only reveal our values and beliefs, but they have a certain power to them … ranging from the power to inform and inspire, to the potential to misinform and cause harm.

Gut Punch: Marketing Microbiome Hype 11:44

This podcast was originally published on April 27th, 2018. For more background information and links to related resources visit: goo.gl/3UyMT5 ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ In poop we trust? It appears so. At least judging from a glut of highly clickable news stories telling us that the trillions of microbes that live in our gut (and on our skin) are important determinants of health. We're told they can cure disease, change our mood, improve athletic performance, and even be modified by our diets in such a way that it puts us in control of balancing levels of "good and bad" bacteria. Problem is, none of this is true. At least not yet. So how did we get to this misinformed place where belief in the microbiome as a panacea trumps the reality that this field -- though fascinating -- is still in its infancy? That's what this podcast aims to answer.…
